Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.

Buddha said this. What do you understand by death?

Death is not the end of your life, it isn’t only that. Death can be in this moment too. I experience death every few weeks, when the joy/enlightenment dies out. I am reborn, and I go through my struggles again. Relapse is death for me.

Some may say it is too idealistic to look at life this way, they are dead. They will be reborn. Death is not only the physical demise of your body, which happens at the end of your lifespan of say 80 years. It is the demise of your mind, which can happen anytime. It is the demise of your soul, your spirit- well, these are eternal, let’s say it is the loss of connection.

Thus with each death I am reborn. When life is lived wisely, such death is no more scary. I am not afraid to throw my life away. I am not afraid to break my routines or personality. I am not afraid to self-destruct.

For it is bound to lead to great things. Eventually, as one remains conscious, one sees the eternal. This eternal will remain, it does not matter what you do. Getting in touch with it is joy. The opposite of the eternal is the abyss. This too is the same thing.

Thus good and bad is nothing. There are levels to this. I have not the words, yet. Experience it for yourself, you do so now too. Each moment your spirit rises and falls. Birth and death. Happiness and sorrow. These are not to be feared. For you will know the truth.
